Low Reynolds Number Flow in a Packed Bed of Rotated Bars

Chemical Engineering &Technology, Volume 49, Issue 6, June 2026.
Research Article: This study examines gas flow in a modular packed‐bed reactor with square bars arranged in rotated layers, creating complex void spaces. Using particle image velocimetry, measurements were taken at Reynolds numbers of 100 and 200. These results validated two particle‐resolved numerical simulations employing boundary‐conforming meshing ...

Application of a compliant foil bearing for the thrust force estimation in the single stage radial blower

Open Engineering, 2015
The paper presents the application of a compliant foil bearing for estimation of the thrust force in a single stage radial blower under operational conditions. The bump foil of the thrust bearing behaves as a nonlinear spring. The knowledge of the spring

Improving Moist‐Electric Generator Stability and Performance by Enhancing Interfacial Activity With Crosslinked Aminated Carbon Dots

Carbon Neutralization, Volume 5, Issue 3, May 2026.
A high‐performance moisture‐enabled electricity generation (MEG) device with amino‐functionalized carbon dots on flexible fabric via thermal crosslinking is presented. The thermal crosslinking strategy enhances adhesion, removes inert groups, and suppresses carbon dots migration, boosting voltage (0.90 V vs. 0.56 V) and stability over 120 h.

Numerical Investigation of Transonic Axial Compressor Rotor With Leading‐Edge Tubercles

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
Amplitude, wavelength, and span‐wise location of the leading‐edge tubercles on a transonic NASA Rotor 37 compressor are numerically optimized. An increase in efficiency by 0.52% compared to the corresponding baseline rotor is observed. The location of the shockwave moves downstream of the rotor with 1.91% higher pressure.

Simulation and Experimental Investigation of Low‐Speed Centrifugal Pump Coupled With Vertical Ultra‐Low‐Head Turbine for Small‐Scale Irrigation

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
From the reviews, a new concept of a low‐speed centrifugal pump (LSCP) driven by a vertical ultra‐low‐head hydro turbine (VULHT) was designed and tested on simulation and physical setup. It was performed with a 1.8 m delivery head, concluding as inefficient. For ultra‐low‐head conditions, different than centrifugal action is recommended.

Forced Response Analysis of Dynamic Systems With Inertia Nonlinearity by Applying the Multiharmonic Balance Method

Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Nonlinear mechanical vibrations under harmonic forcing can be well approximated by Fourier series. For a finite number of harmonics, the error is minimized over one period of vibration. This technique, known as multiharmonic balance method (MHBM), is today widely used in academics as well as industrial applications, e.g., for friction‐damped ...
